BWeird’s OC-tober day 17: alignment chart

Sorry if some of the words are hard to read!!

From left to right and top to bottom there is:

The Peacekeeper, Sentinel of kindness. Just wants everyone to get along please.

Alizée Pennon. Loves her job and takes her joy where she can.

Comet Villanueva. Would be veering dangerously into mad scientist territory if they had any money.

The Inquisitor, Sentinel of curiosity. Following the pursuit of knowledge like a baby duck following its mother.

Trouble, Sentinel of lies. Will do anything for the bit.

The Sybarite, Sentinel of hedonism. Carefree to a fault.

The Warlord, Sentinel of war. Just sucks overall.

I am STILL LOSING IT over the smiley face Trojan Horse in The Warlord #55.

Like. This fucking shit turns up out the front of your gates. It's too big to come in your gates. It's a smiley face that says HAVE A NICE DAY and there's an obvious door in the side of it. What do you even think???

Incredible. Stunning. Travis Morgan the shit you are pulling on the people of Skartaris, who do not get any of the references involved in what nonsense you just created.

Mike Grell just glorying in all of the nonsense that comes into his mind in the Warlord will never not be funny to me.

BWeird’s OC-tober day 28: monster

So for today’s prompt I decided to draw some concept art of the sentinels’ true forms which means there’s freaky looking guys under the cut!! tw for mild body horror, blood and general strange creatures!!

Tbh I think the Sybarite could look more eldritch but I was really attached to her being a satyr/faun. Yes I know satyrs are goats but I was really attached to xem having tree antlers /lh

I feel I don’t rant about Travis Morgan and Skartaris enough so here is your official reminder I adore them both and they are terrible.

Travis reached Skartaris, discovered he didn’t have to wear military clothing, then spent the next decade wearing progressively less and less clothing at all times. He’s the greatest warrior inside the earth and runs around in a jewelled belt slung over one shoulder and a loincloth. He wears a helmet and boots. His major arteries are all completely naked to the air in a place where people fight with swords.

Skartaris itself has every pulp mid 20th century SFF conspiracy you can think of. There are dinosaurs and druids, gladiators and slavers, wizards and ancient Atlantean technology. It is always sunny. It’s a hollow Earth. Time passes at a different speed.
